MLAI Restaurant Management System

What is Restaurant Management System?

In simple terms, restaurant management software is a set of programs designed to automate restaurant operations, thus reducing the dependency on human staff. Using restaurant management software, you will be able to manage the entire range of operations - which includes table management, order management, menu creation and management, inventory management, and customer loyalty management. A restaurant management program should also provide real-time reports which allow you to make informed decisions about the operations of your restaurant.

Why do restaurants need a Restaurant Management System?

The operation of a restaurant can seem overwhelming at times, posing a wide range of challenges for both the owner and the staff involved. The following are some of the tasks that a restaurant management system can assist with:

  • Management of menu items and sale bills
  • Improve employee experience by reducing manual efforts
  • Process orders faster by generating kitchen order tickets (KOTs)
  • Enhance customer satisfaction by providing discounts and loyalty rewards.
  • Monitor your inventory constantly and send alerts when restocking is necessary.
  • Safe and secure data access from anywhere, anytime
  • Get actionable insights through real-time reports

Restaurant management system vs Restaurant POS


Restaurant POS

  • Restaurant point-of-sale (POS) software is the basic requirement for every type of restaurant.
  • It allows the restaurant staff to create and manage menus, record transactions, and process payments
  • Generally, it is a suitable choice for smaller restaurants, such as snack shops, juice shops, and quick-service restaurants (QSRs)

Restaurant Management System

  • A restaurant management system, on the other hand, is a package of software that enables restaurants to automate all aspects of their operations.
  • The restaurant management software can supply additional features to the staff of the restaurant besides the functionality offered by the restaurant POS system, such as order management, inventory management, marketing management and table management.
  • Several restaurants can benefit from having a restaurant management system, whether it is a conventional dine-in restaurant, cloud kitchen or a chain of restaurants - where the scale of operations is larger and it is necessary to monitor and manage various aspects of the business, such as ingredient stock, recipe management, order processing, customer experience, finances and monitoring performance.

Key Features of an MLAI Restaurant Management System

It is important to understand the key features of a good restaurant management system to simplify and make the process of choosing one simple and straightforward

Table management
The management of restaurant tables can easily become a nightmare for restaurant owners if they are not properly organized. Generally, restaurant management systems will have provisions for directing customers to the available tables, along with mapping the waiting staff to the relevant tables.
Menu & recipe management
The software for restaurants also provides a provision for recording & storing menu items, their recipes and the corresponding supply lists required to prepare them, along with a corresponding recipe book. It also allows flexibility to add or delete items based on the availability of the dish or the ingredients.
Order management
To ensure the success of a restaurant business, kitchen operations need to be streamlined. Restaurant management software must have a kitchen order ticket (KOT) generator to enable order processing to be as fast and efficient as possible.
Inventory management
In reality, food does not have a very long shelf life, nor is it an inexpensive resource. A restaurant's success greatly depends on its ability to order the right quantity of the right ingredients at the right time. The restaurant owner or kitchen staff can keep track of their stock by installing restaurant management software.
Finance & accounting management
The cornerstone of good restaurant management software is the financial management part of it since a restaurant must track every transaction and generate bills with as little hassle as possible when it comes to the billing process. Having a tax management feature installed at your restaurant will ease the burden on the owner during tax season.
Customer relationship management
There will be some challenges that any restaurant will face when it comes to attracting and retaining customers. To improve customer experience, it is imperative to reward loyal customers and motivate new customers with special incentives. Using the right restaurant management software, you can manage your marketing effectively to achieve that goal.
Delivery management
As the majority of restaurant revenue is derived from online orders, the majority of a business is derived from customers who prefer to order food online at a time and place that works for them. Moreover, the use of a restaurant software system that has an online ordering feature helps restaurants aggregate these orders and save time, effort and money.

Benefits of using Restaurant software
